WINDOW-FRAM E.

$PECIFIOATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 712,629, dated November4, 1902.

T0 aZZ whom, it may concern.-

Beit known tl1atI,DANIEL ZATZKE,a citizen of the United States, residingat Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have inventedcertain new and useful Improvements in Window-Frames; and I do herebydeclare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of theinvention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which itappertains to make and use the same, reference being bad to theaccompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon,which form a part of this specification. 7

My invention relates to improvements in window-frames; and it consistsinnovel parts and combination of parts described hereinafter and set forthin the claims.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a front elevation. Fig. 2 is a section onthe line 2 2 of Fig. 1, showing the frame only. Fig. 3 is a like viewshowing the panes in position. Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4 4 ofFig. 1, showing the frame only. Fig. 5 is a like view showing the panesin position.

Referring more particularly tothe-drawings, the frame comprises a bottomrail 6, stiles 7, a top rail 8, a horizontal bar 9, and a vertical bar10. The bars are constructed of one piece, the horizontal bar passingthrough the bar 10 and into the stiles.

zontal bar 9 are rabbeted, as at 7 and 10 respectively, to receive theupper panes of glass. Similar rabbets 7 and 10 are formed in the lowerpart of the stiles and vertical bar to receive the lower panes. Thedepth of the rabbets-is slightly greater at the bot- By this con--struction the frame is greatly strengthened.

tom than at the top, so that where they meet in the middle a shoulder 11is formed, on which the lower edge of the upper panes rests and wherebythey are supported. The shoulder is substantially the same width as thethickness of the pane, and this construction permits the panes tooverlap where they meet at the bar 9, the upper being outside to shedthe rain. The lower edge of the lower panes is seated outside a bead 6,formed on the lower rail6, and putty may be applied at-the outer loweredge, as indicated at 12. This is all the outside puttying that need bedone to glaze the sash, the remainder being inside, as at 13. It will beseen that by this construction the sash need not be removed in securinga pane to the same, and a neat and attractive window is obtained.

Having thus described my invention,what is claimed as new, and desiredto be secured by Letters Patent, is-

1. A window-sash the stiles of which are rabbeted interiorly to receivethe panes, shoulders formed in the rabbets on which the upper panerests, and an inwardly-presented shoulder formed in the top rail, and anoutwardly-presented shoulder in the bottom rail to retain the panes,substantially as shown and described.

2. A window-sash comprising top and bottom rails and stiles, averticalbar extending between the top and bottom rails, and a horizontalbar extendingbetween the stiles and through the vertical bar, the stileshaving shoulders at the loweredge of the horizontal bar, and upper andlower panes which lap behind the horizontal bar, the upper panes restingon the shoulders, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
